Reviews for Charles Hotel
If they changed a few things!!
Nice front desk team. Good breakfast. Rooms are very small. Inconvenient power slots tied to lamp being on. Thus you cannot use them for overnight charging or for your CPAP machine. Bring an extension cord! Also no ability to control temperature in our room. Ac/ventilation goes on and off throughout the night. Nothing you can do. Great location!

Right at Harvard Square
Was there for two nights and got a very nice suite. Room was comfortable, quiet and clean and everything worked. Great desk space for work. Common areas were clean and comfortable. there is also a unknown Italian pastry/deli attached to the hotel. great breakfast and lunch sandwich.

Outstanding experience
Beautiful hotel right in the heart of Cambridge. Excellent service and gorgeous room. Enjoyed the cocktails and food at Noir. Walkable to everything.

A perfect place to stay in Cambridge
Fantastic location, rooms, amenities and services. The perfect stay in Cambridge. The hotel is steps from Harvard Square with lots of options for dining or to get to other parts of town (e.g T) although they do have a fantastic ride service (free) should you need it as I did when I was late for my conference and it was raining. The rooms are perfectly appointed and the hotel offers a variety of options to relax over drinks or dinner after a long day. And for those of us who drive into Boston the garage, right under the hotel, is a big plus.

Soggiorno consigliato
This was our second time staying at this hotel, and once again we had a wonderful experience. The hotel is quiet, peaceful, very clean, and in a fantastic location. Breakfast at Henrietta’s is highly recommended. Our room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The only small downside was the bathrobe: although it feels very soft, it’s made of a synthetic fabric that isn’t very pleasant and doesn’t dry well. The staff were extremely kind and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.
